IDF Closes Investigation Into Brutal 2023 Settler Attack on Palestinians Without Charges | Common Dreams

No skeletons in the closet to see here!

The dismissal of the case comes amid what the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data (ACLED) described as “an unprecedented surge in settler-related violence” this year, particularly this summer. June saw a record 460 settler-related attacks, and the trend has continued into July, with 360 documented incidents between July 1-24.

The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights warned on Wednesday that settler violence was at an “all-time high,” noting that 18 Palestinians have been killed so far this year in incidents linked to settler attacks, more than the 17 who were killed all of last year.

Maybe we should just keep appeasing this? Surely this will "sort itself out" right?

There should be a specific c/ when said super predictable things happen end up happening. Instead of c/news or global news just call it c/known or globalknown
